Newest US Senate Land Sale Amendment

I was told this was coming, last night. Then I was told it was being held until a Parliamentarian decision was made today. I got that letter this evening and I was waiting for confirmation that it was OK to post. As a now public document, here it is.

If any of these folks are your Rep., please call them with support.

Out of curiosity. Where does MT Rep. Troy Downing stand? Why is his name not mentioned?

Just trying to keep pressure where pressure is needed.

This letter makes me more suspicious than it is comforting. There is no point or reason for it. It is unnecessary. They just have to tell Johnson “we are a ‘no’”. But whatever. A win is a win. I’m not going to go full conspiracy theory. The whole “you’re on a mission from God” is a really nice touch though. Chefs kiss.
 
Alabama and Florida light them up!!!

From AP article:

“A few Republicans reacted with indignation Thursday after the Senate parliamentarian advised that some of the measures in their tax and immigration bill could not be included in the legislation

Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., tweeted on X that Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough should be fired, “ASAP.” Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., intimated that she was partisan, asking why an “unelected swamp bureaucrat, who was appointed by Harry Reid over a decade ago” gets to decide what’s in the bill?”

great to hear! Shocker that Rep. Hageman didn't join that list...not really after seeing her throw every question regarding public lands in the trash (literally in front of her constituents who asked those questions). Will be sending thank you's to every single one of those reps. that actually stood up for their constituents tonight.
Hageman is garbage. You guys need to wake up and take the trash out in Wyoming. Sorry but that’s the truth.

That first paragraph almost made me blush, but great letter. 🥵
 
Imagine doing something so stupid you have SFW this against you. I’ve NEVER seen SFW push at an Utah politician twice in an email in a week. Lee has massively misread everything. It’s really wild how absurd he’s been over this tbh. One his sonars REALLY wants this.

Hell even all private land hunter Ted Nugent told him to pound sand

Who is @hunternation aligned with financially or otherwise that they are touting Senator Lee and his compromises on the land sale bill?

The point is political capital.

Notice the timing of this, Daines statement and some others: looks like Lee’s efforts are almost certainly dead in the water at this point- it’s a safe time to make tough statement to try to earn some political capital (without the risk of getting sideways with DT).

That said- I don’t think the July 4th target date is looking very likely at this point regardless of what happens with Lee’s part. There are other R Senators that are coming out as a “no” right now as well, Ron Johnson-WI being one of them (for other reasons).

Some of the entitlement parts of the BBB are going to be really tricky for these guys to navigate, I’m not sure how close the Senate is to having something that is actually going to pass right now.
 
Do we have any idea what Mike Lee is scrambling to do right now? Certainly feels like he should be backed into a corner now, but his silence the last day and a half makes me a little nervous.
